As for Mateusz Klich, the 32-year-old has joined the MLS side DC United this month. The experienced ace struggled for game time at Leeds during the first half of the season and he will look to get his career back on track with regular football at DC United now.
The midfielder has not started a single league game for Leeds this season, playing a total of 266 minutes in 14 league appearances. Klich leaves Leeds having made 195 appearances for them, scoring 24 goals and picking up 21 assists.
